Unfortunately, I did get sick after eating here. I have Celiac’s and was running to the bathroom within 30 minutes. However, I’ve eaten here before and had no issues so I think it was a matter of cross contamination. The manager handled it great, was empathetic and comped my meal!

Great GF pancakes, tons of options. I eat here once a month at least and have never had a problem. They serve GF on a different colored plate. I'm very sensitive to gluten.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Absolutely DELICIOUS!! I’ve tried several items on their menu. My favorite by far is the Banana Crepes. Their pancakes, waffles, and potatoes are also delicious.

Amazing food. Dedicated allergy station in their kitchen. Knowledgeable staff. Highly recommend!!

Got sick from the veggie sausages and it was completely awful. Not gluten free friendly.

The gluten-free pancakes were solid and appreciated. They have fresh blueberry syrup also which was terrific.

OK here's my honest review going to the Original Pancake House with Celiac. They have several gluten free options, which is super cool. They can make any pancake gluten free, however, I have no idea what ingredients are in their add ons for pancakes and honestly I'm not sure the wait staff fully knows either. Due to that lack of confidence, I ordered plain GF pancakes. They tasted excellent and I highly recommend. The caveat is how sensitive are you and how willing are you to take a legit chance in potentially getting glutened? They do cook the pancakes on a separate griddle, but they use the same cooking utensil as regular pancakes, so the potential is there for cross contamination. I would avoid the waffles because they are cooked in the same waffle iron. I took a chance on the pancakes and I think I will be safe. I would stay away from ANY sides as they are cooked on the same griddled as the gluten foods. If I get glutened I am confident it is because I did not ask the right questions related to meat prep BEFORE I took a bite of the ham I ordered. So if you decide to roll the dice on this one and hope against hope because you just want to have a "normal" meal out with your family because celiac is HARD, I would recommend sticking with straight up GF plain pancakes. Hope that helps you all! Have a good day!
